Animal facts have never been so funny, in this picture book that celebrates curiosity and communication

Frank E. Armadillo is an Expert Explorer Extraordinaire who can’t wait to tell you all about their latest discovery: pretty, pretty princess birds!

Except here comes a real-life Flamingo! In this laugh-out-loud and fact-filled series-opener, Frank discovers they don't know what they don't know, and that real experts ask questions.
